*shrug* I still like figs, and you can always go for smaller and
smaller,
especially if you find some with attached bases.

Of course, you could try a photocopying machine that'll reduce the
template;
something so obvious that I never considered it. ;->=

Well, if the TV tray is a steel one, you could always use stick-on
plastic
magnets. Strips could be cut into squares for counters, and I suggested
a
paper punch for circles for figs with round bases. (Actually, that was
for
someone trying to do Epic scale Space Hulk(TM EE)).

Counters have the advantage that you can always turn the tray over and
set
it down for victualling...

Otherwise, magnets have advantages for high kinetic areas like
automobiles,

or situations where on the wall works best.
